(CHAPTER 9: SCARS)

"You like those clothes?" I stare at Kasumi as she shook the clothes out from the bags and onto the bed. "You know how to wear it?" I asked, she shook her head. Poor fells. "Here." I patted on my lap. "Sit here, I help you." She sat on my lap as I put the jacket onto her and zip it up. "How do you think of it?" I asked. "It felt, warm." She smiled, rubbing her arms. "Very warm." The smile seems to hit the g spot in me, without noticing I place my face on her head and sniffs. This is supposed to be a very emotional scene with character development, and maybe I could say something great that makes her happy like…

"You reek sweat."

"Gah!" She slapped my face away. "Go take a bath first while I prepare lunch." I pointed at the bathroom as I rub my swollen cheek, that is one heck of a slap. She stormed into the bathroom without saying any other word, as I stood up and headed to the kitchen beside. I beat up some eggs and heat up some instant noodles at the pot. Not a fancy meal, but I am just a poor creep, what kind of royal cuisine did you expect from me.

While cooking, I take a few quick glimpse at the bathroom. Through the mosaic door, I could see her shadow moving, cleaning herself up, and damn she really got a nice body. "Gah!" Without even noticing, the noodles had overcooked as the bubbles flooded out from the pot. "Shit!" I immediately turn off the electric stove, but too late. I rub my head, I really need to stop being like this, if not there are chances that I could burn this entire apartment down. "Zeo!" Suddenly the bathroom door was pulled open as she poked her head out. "Y-yes!?' I backed up towards the wall, keeping distance like she was the walking corona.

"Can you, help me with something?" She asked out, blushing. "I couldn't clean my back; can you clean it for me?" I stare at her, she stare back. "I will clean your back too if you wanted. And next thing you know, I am in a bathroom, strip naked with another naked girl. "Don't you dare do anything!" She shouted. "Don't you dare turn back!" I scream back, the steaming situation in the bathroom makes things even worse, people say being burn alive is the most painful death one can experience. But I felt like I am in heaven.

"Here…" She scooted some space in the bathtub, I sat on it, her back facing towards me. Too bad the bathtub is filled with bubble, if the water is clear, I could still take a great look at her thicc ass- "Quit staring!" "I didn't!" I immediately deny, how honest I am. "Take this." She handed me a towel she just drenched, she didn't turn her head towards me, such a shame. I took the wet towel and began rubbing it on her back, she got nice skins by the way, but it was at that time I found the small scars that didn't supposed to exist on someone of her age.

"Those scars…" I asked her. "What happened." "Nothing." She shrugged. "I had an accident before, the gas canister at my home exploded. It killed my family, buy not me, so it left these scars." She lied, as a professional, these scars are caused by bullets and sharp items, this is no explosion accident, these are all battle scars. But I didn't say a word, as I attentively clean her back up, those scars, seeing them hurt my eyes…

"Okay, your turn." After I finished cleaning, I handed her back the towel. She dipped it into the bathwater and clean it up a bit before finally speaking. "Now turn around, don't you dare to trick me." I did as what she say, giving her my back. The moment she turned around, she let out a soft gasp. I could feel her fingers running up and down those holes and deep cuts. "Who are you?" She asked. Me? Yeah, who am I. I remain silent as I could feel she rubbing on my back. When her hands reached the deepest scar on my back, the one that almost split me into half, she stopped. The towel fell into the bathtub with a plop. She grabbed me by the back of the shoulder and whimpered.

"You, okay?" I couldn't control but turn around slightly to check on her. But instead, Kasumi hugged me and cried, grabbing my waist and rub her damn cheek on my back. "It's alright…" I comforted her as I patted her head while she cried. Maybe now she will realise, why I took care of her so much. Because, maybe, we are the same human being after all.

"Zeo…" She suddenly called my name. "Y-yes?" "I wanted, to show you something…" "What?" I could hear she standing up from behind me, instantly panic took over my mind. What is she doing? "T-turn around." I beg in the name of my fully erected penis? "W-what?" "J-just t-urn around!" She grab me by my head and tried to forcefully turn my head around. With the probability and high risk my neck snapped, I refused to around, definitely not because I actually wanted it myself. I mean how dare you think of me as such a filthy creep, I am a holy, sinless man, Jesus Christ.

I turned around.

With one hand she grabbed my head while with the other, she covered the place where Eve needed to shade with some weed. And above the part, is the code number tattooed on it: 0519. "I-I once was one of, the Global Government's Assassin. All I wanted to do is to follow orders and kill, d-doing all those dirty deeds. I-I always hoped, one day I could finally return to freedom. They b-etrayed me, b-but you saved me back." She finally came clean of her identity as Kasumi look towards the other side, she couldn't hold the tears as they escaped her eyes. "I-I, wanted to serve you, s-o from, n-now on." She stuttered, she was blushing furiously and so do I.

"From now on, I am yours."
